Cookie Policy
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer by websites that you visit. They are widely used to make websites work, or work more efficiently, as well as to provide information to the owners of the site on user interaction in order that they might enhance products or services.
We and our third party business partners use cookies and other tracking technologies that are used alongside cookies, such as web beacons (also known as “tags” and “pixels”) which are small images embedded in our website, content or emails, and “embedded scripts” which are pieces of code that are temporarily downloaded onto your device for a number of purposes: some cookies are necessary to make our website usable by enabling basic functions such as page navigation and access to secure areas of the website; analytics cookies help us to understand how visitors interact with our website by collecting and reporting information anonymously; and marketing cookies are used by us and our third party business partners to track visitors across websites, and to display advertisements that are relevant and engaging for the individual user and thereby more valuable for publishers and third-party advertisers.
